Nobody is going to write markdown in a WYSIWYG as the whole idea of a WYSIWYG is it looks like the end product and you don’t need to know Markdown, HTML etc 😜

Plus if you copy a code snippet in to a true WYSIWYG it is nice to see the syntax highlighting live!

I think I have made this all very confusing by combining the two for jokes! I think part two is going to need a lot of notes to cover this and the deprecation you mentioned in another comment!

However you have made a good point that Markdown import and export (that will be hard as some things aren’t possible in markdown that are in a HTML wysiwyg) needs adding to the spec list πŸ‘
